Information on the Area Competition


The area round of the Rotary Young Musician and Vocalist was held at Heriot Watt University on 15th February 2017.  This year it was hosted by the Currie Balerno Club. It was a dual competition as we had the City and East Area as well as our own Central and West Area Rounds. 


There was again some very rich talent on show and we heard modern and classical vocalists and instrumentalists, including bagpipes, fugal horn (winner of Central and West Area), classical guitar and tuba.  Our two competitors Grace Stroud (cornet) and vocalist Kathryn Hope performed admirably but were not placed in the first two.  Altogether 9 musicians and 7 vocalists took part in each area competition.
